IDK where you work, neither does it particularly matter but as for bragging that the company made the Gartners Magic Quadrant that is beyond hilarious....
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_Quadrant#Criticism
Research firms like these sell out to the highest bidders and give them favorable reviews as qouted from wiki below.....

"It has been pointed out that the criteria for the Magic Quadrant cater more towards investors and large vendors than towards buyers[3].
Much of the criticism is focused on the lack of disclosure of the moneys received from the vendors it rates, raising conflict of interest issues. Also a source of criticism is the lack of disclosure on the vendor's component scores and the lack of transparency in Gartner's methodology used to derive the vendor's position on the MQ map."

Pay close attention to the bolded....

If I gave you a couple mill with the agreement that you praise my abilities, I'm quite sure you'd have no problems with giving me high marks......

In our case we were a small company at the time (this was a couple of years ago) with limited funds so there is no way we would have had the kind of money to throw at Gartner, esp. considering we beat out IBM in the tech support arena, that would have cost a LOT of money, lol. I'm pretty sure we made it on our own merit. Now I don't know everything that goes on at my company so I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure we didn't have anywhere near the kind of funds needed to buy a spot in the quadrant.

In all truthfulness, Sprint has the worst customer support in the whole world. I am in technical support, I have been so for coming on 10 years, and the level of service I receive from Sprint can be summarized much like my ex wife:

Nice personality, **** for brains

They don't know anything, they guess if they don't know the answer (90% of the time) or they just flat out tell you that it is not possible if it means they can close your case and be on their merry way.

Sprint has the cheapest rates and best phones around, that's where they get their customers. In the customer/technical support department however, they are lacking.

I could tell you some stories about phone calls with Sprint that would blow your mind, but, I left Sprint, never to return. In fact, I switched to Skype, and have Skype on my phone, and I get better service with it.

Good riddance
you should change your profile.... it shows sprint as your carrier.....

Re: I am leaving sprint and my touch pro..must read.

Haha that is awsome, ironically, my last name is Hesse also. One other issue i have seen, unless i can get the audio of the conversations, (i should have recorded) is THEY select what notes get put into the account, any valid points i make over and over again do not get added.
